Influence of Different Types of Peroxides on the Long-Chain Branching of PP via Reactive Extrusion

Long-chain branching (LCB) is known as a suitable method to increase the melt strength behavior of linear polypropylene (PP), which is a fundamental weakness of this material. This enables the modification of various properties of PP, which can then be used—in the case of PP recyclates—as a practica...
